Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-4685:
--------------------------------------------------
The point is that the necessary information is in principle available - not
that we support this out of the box anywhere. I could always extract the TS
information from the external form, merge it with the TS information locally
known, and create a new CAS. If you don't consider a pipeline not to be a
single pipeline but rather a concatenation of several independent pipelines,
then each system initializes a pipeline when it receives a document - thus type
merging would be possible.
> Add Common Load/Save APIs, including type system and index defs, for various

> Key: UIMA-4685
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4685
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: CasEditor, Core Java Framework
> Affects Versions: 2.8.1SDK
> Reporter: Peter Klügl
> Assignee: Peter Klügl
> Fix For: 2.9.0SDK
>
> Attachments: BinaryCasIOUtils.java, caseditor.csv,
> caseditor_bincas.csv
>
>
> Create a new CasIOUtils class having common load and save APIs, with optional
> saving of type system and index definitions, in all the various CAS
> serialization formats (except JSON). Implement heuristic discovery for
> deserialization to support automatic selection of the right kind of
> deserializer. Update the headers for binary to support indicating they have
> the type system included (not used yet). Update the SerialFormat to support
> this. Update the CasEditor and other components to use this new API.
